About Soly South Africa
In 2019, Soly expanded from the Netherlands to South Africa, setting up shop in the heart of Cape Town. We're here to help businesses and consumers switch to renewable energy, tapping into some of the world's highest solar irradiation levels. With South Africa's sunny climate, there's incredible potential to make a real difference in fighting climate change. At Soly South Africa, our mission is to bolster the country's developing economy through sustainable and reliable solar energy solutions.
Our partners
One mission
In 2013, brothers Patrick and Milan van der Meulen founded Soly with one mission: to make solar energy accessible to everyone.
Captivated by the immense potential of solar energy, the founders saw it as an affordable, decentralised, and clean energy source. At that time, the efficiency and feasibility of solar panels were uncertain, and high investment costs deterred companies and homeowners alike. Soly addressed this challenge by becoming the first solar provider in the Netherlands to offer a solar lease solution. Today, Soly plays a crucial role in South Africa’s renewable energy transition.
Soly throughout the years
From a clear vision, we have grown to become a leading player in the solar industry. Today, Soly plays a crucial role in South Africa’s renewable energy transition. We provide our innovative solar lease solution to companies, enabling them to operate independently from the grid without the burden of a large initial investment. And with determination and innovation, we reach countless milestones, always keeping one mission in mind:
Solar energy for all. It is possible.
